Arizona State sneaks past Stanford Stanford had Arizona State on the ropes until the heavyweights took the mat. The Sun Devils trailed 17-12 when Cohlton Schultz faced Peter Ming. Schultz dominated the match and gave the Sun Devils an 18-17 victory with a pin. Jesse Vasquez continued his comeback with a solid 8-3 win over Jason Miranda, Kyle Parco went over Jaden Abas 5-1 in a top-15 matchup, Jacori Teemer got by #8 Daniel Cardenas 7-5 and Tony Negron defeated Jack Darrah 6-3. Cal Poly nearly sweeps Cal Baptist The Mustangs defeated Cal Baptist 32-3, winning nine out of the ten matches. Chance Lamer and Trevor Tinker earned tech fall wins while Abraham Hinrichsen got away with a 4-1 sudden victory. Michael Goldfeder’s 7-2 loss to Mateo de la Pena was the only setback on the day for Cal Poly. CSU Bakersfield finishes dual season winless Besides the Covid season, Cal State Bakersfield has won at least one dual in the last ten seasons. However, the Roadrunners lost 29-9 to Hofstra and finished 0-12 in the dual season. In their final dual, the Roadrunners won three matches. Richard Castro-Sandoval defeated Dyland Acevedo-Switzer 6-1, Guillermo Escobedo upended Jake Slotnick 10-4 and Braden Smelser downed Joe McGinty 4-1. Little Rock wins eight matches against SIUE; Trojans Claim Pac-12 Dual Title Over the weekend, Little Rock captured a 33-6 victory against Southern Illinois Edwardsville. The Trojans won eight of the matches. Jeremiah Reno and Tyler Brennan earned pins while Stephen Little defeated Nick Nosler 21-5. Though Little Rock did not wrestle a Pac-12 foe, they claimed the Pac-12 dual title based on results from other teams in the conference. In just their fifth year, Little Rock had their first winning record (14-5) and finished the year 4-1 in the Pac-12. Neil Erisman’s program started the year with only nine total wins in program history. Oregon State dominates Stanford The Beavers defeated Stanford 29-11, capturing seven of the ten matches. Gabe Whisenhunt shined with a pin against Dominic LaJoie. In addition, Boone McDermott pinned Peter Ming within the first minute. Brandon Kaylor won a top-25 matchup against Nico Provo 7-3 too. He’ll likely receive the top seed in a strong Pac-12 weight class. Stanford falls to ASU, OSU Stanford was one match away from defeating Arizona State. Nico Provo won by sudden victory 13-8 against Richard Figueroa, Dominic LaJoie defeated Carter Dibert 9-8, Hunter Garvin beat Chance McLane 4-1, true freshman Tye Monteiro knocked off Cael Valencia 9-4 at 174 lbs and Nick Stemmet teched Damion Schunke 20-5 to push the Cardinal ahead of ASU. However, the heavyweight contest decided the outcome. Schultz’s pin of Peter Ming flipped the tide and gave ASU the 18-17 victory. Afterward, Stanford lost to Oregon State 29-11. Jaden Abas majored Nash Singleton 14-3, Daniel Cardenas did the same to CJ Hamblin 14-5 and Garvin edged Kekana Fouret 6-5.

We had another solid weekend of ACC wrestling last week, setting up for a great final weekend and conference dual champion-deciding matchup. North Carolina used bonus points to knock off Virginia in a dual with a 5-5 split on matches. The Hokies exacted revenge in Pittsburgh, returning the favor from last season and knocking off the Panthers at home. In the final conference action of the weekend, the Wolfpack showed off their depth, resting most of their starters in a lopsided victory over the Blue Devils. NC State also started the weekend with a bang, dominating in their top-10 battle against Cornell. Virginia Tech 26 Pittsburgh 12 Though the dual was closer than the score may appear, the Hokies grabbed control early and never relinquished the lead. They opened the dual with a massive upset at 184 with TJ Stewart taking out #9 Reece Heller in sudden victory on a penalty point for an illegal head scissor. Colton Camacho gave Cooper Flynn a tough test but Flynn was able to secure a last-second takedown to take a 3-2 win. The biggest match of the dual featured the two remaining undefeated wrestlers in the conference at 141. It was a fun match. It was back-and-forth throughout and went to sudden victory; Matthews got in deep on a shot and Crook tried to scramble out - Matthews caught Crook mid-scramble and was able to secure the pin in sudden victory. Matthews earns the top seed for the ACC Championship with an unblemished record; he will still have a match remaining against Jack Gioffre but holds wins over Crook, McNeil, and Jack. The Panthers will be back home for the conference finale weekend, hosting Virginia while Virginia Tech will travel to Raleigh to face NC State for the ACC Dual Champion crown. 125 - Cooper Flynn (Virginia Tech) dec Colton Camacho (Pittsburgh) 3-2 133 - Sam Latona (Virginia Tech) dec Vince Santaniello (Pittsburgh) 6-4 141 - Cole Matthews (Pittsburgh) fall Tom Crook (Virginia Tech) 7:18 149 - Caleb Henson (Virginia Tech) dec Finn Solomon (Pittsburgh) 10-6 157 - Clayton Ulrey (Virginia Tech) maj Kelin Laffey (Pittsburgh) 10-2 165 - Holden Heller (Pittsburgh) dec Connor Brady (Virginia Tech) 11-5 174 - Mekhi Lewis (Virginia Tech) tech Grant MacKay (Pittsburgh) 19-4 184 - TJ Stewart (Virginia Tech) dec Reece Heller (Pittsburgh) 2-1SV 197 - Mac Stout (Pittsburgh) dec Dakota Howard (Virginia Tech) 7-4 285 - Hunter Catka (Virginia Tech) tech Geoff Magin (Pittsburgh) 17-2 North Carolina 18 Virginia 16 We expected this to be a close dual and it lived up to expectations. Both programs had some starters out due to illness or injuries, but both teams flexed their depth with backups picking up wins for the team. Justin McCoy and Tyler Eischens had a great match at 174 with McCoy holding on to an early lead to get the decision win; this will likely establish the 2-seed for the ACC tournament. At the lighter weights, I was very impressed by the performances of Spencer Moore for the Tar Heels and Marlon Yarbrough for the Hoos; both have good momentum going into the tournament and Yarbrough will have a tough test this week at Pittsburgh against Vinnie Santaniello. I was also very impressed by the match that Max Shaw put together against a scrappy Krystian Kinsey. The Hoos will face Pittsburgh and the Tar Heels will host Duke to close out the regular season. 125 - Spencer Moore (North Carolina) tech Sammie Hayes (Virginia) 19-4 133 - Marlon Yarbrough (Virginia) tech Derek Guanajuato (North Carolina) 16-4 141 - Kyren Butler (Virginia) dec Jace Palmer (North Carolina) 8-5SV 149 - Jayden Scott (North Carolina) dec Michael Gioffre (Virginia) 4-1SV 157 - Sonny Santiago (North Carolina) dec Nick Sanko (Virginia) 8-5 165 - Nick Hamilton (Virginia) dec Isaias Estrada (North Carolina) 9-8 174 - Justin McCoy (Virginia) dec Tyler Eischens (North Carolina) 6-4 184 - Sabino Portella (North Carolina) dec Hudson Stewart (Virginia) 17-5 197 - Max Shaw (North Carolina) dec Krystian Kinsey (Virginia) 11-5 285 - Ryan Catka (Virginia) dec Cade Lautt (North Carolina) 4-2 NC State 24 Cornell 9 The Wolfpack came into this dual looking for a statement win…and boy did they get one, taking out #9 Cornell seven matches to three. Camacho looked strong in his return to the lineup, notching a 5-1 win over Brett Ungar to start the dual. Kai Orine looked like he wasn’t happy he didn’t get the chance to wrestle Vito Arujau, who sat out the dual, and blanked Ethan Qureshi in a second period tech fall. Ryan Jack rallied from an early deficit to get the decision win over Josh Saunders and Jackson Arrington picked up a dominant major decision over Ethan Fernandez. After winning the first four, the Wolfpack dropped the next three matches as they got to the strength of the Cornell lineup. Meyer Shapiro looked fantastic in his win over Ed Scott, followed by AJ Kovacs dropping a 9-4 decision to Julian Ramirez and Alex Faison losing 8-4 to Benny Baker. The Wolfpack took the final three bouts in impressive fashion. Dylan Fishback earned the upset win over Chris Foca; I was very impressed by the composure of Fishback and his ability to stay in the match. Trent Hidlay notched win #98 of his career over a very good Jacob Cardenas - he also beat Cardenas at the CKLV. The final bout was a gritty win by Owen Trephan over Lewis Fernandes to give the Wolfpack the 24-9 team win. In their Sunday dual in Durham, the Wolfpack rested several starters, with 6 regular starters out for the dual. They showcased the young talent they have at the lower weights, picking up wins at 125, 133, and 141 from backups. Jarred Papscy earned a Senior Day win for the Blue Devils at 149 and Connor Barket continued his strong season with a pin over Chase Horne at 285. 125 - Jakob Camacho (NC State) dec Brett Ungar (Cornell) 5-1 133 - Kai Orine (NC State) tech Ethan Qureshi (Cornell) 15-0 141 - Ryan Jack (NC State) dec Joshua Saunders (Cornell) 7-4 149 - Jackson Arrington (NC State) maj Ethan Fernandez (Cornell) 12-2 157 - Meyer Shapiro (Cornell) dec Ed Scott (NC State) 7-2 165 - Julian Ramirez (Cornell) dec AJ Kovacs (NC State) 9-4 174 - Benny Baker (Cornell) dec Alex Faison (NC State) 8-4 184 - Dylan Fishback (NC State) dec Chris Foca (Cornell) 6-4 197 - Trent Hidlay (NC State) dec Jacob Cardenas (Cornell) 8-2 285 - Owen Trephan (NC State) dec Lewis Fernandes (Cornell) 1-0 NC State 36 Duke 9 125 - Troy Hohman (NC State) tech Logan Agin (Duke) 16-0 133 - Vincent Robinson (NC State) maj Raymond Adams (Duke) 20-10 141 - Tyler Tracy (NC State) maj Christian Colman (Duke) 11-0 149 - Jarred Papscy (Duke) dec Koy Buesgens (NC State) 7-3 157 - Ed Scott (NC State) fall Logan Ferrero (Duke) 3:32 165 - Derek Fields (NC State) dec Gaetano Console (Duke) 11-4 174 - Alex Faison (NC State) tech David Hussey (Duke) 22-5 184 - Brock DelSignore (NC State) maj Conor Becker (Duke) 15-4 197 - Trent Hidlay (NC State) tech Kwasi Bonsu (Duke) 18-2 285 - Connor Barket (Duke) fall Chase Horne (NC State) 3:46

We're coming down the homestretch in the regular season. Only one more week of dual events before we turn our attention to the postseason and conference tournaments. With almost four months of data points at our disposal, there haven't been too many rankings shake-ups this week. As has often been the case, the most work needed to be done to the 125 lb rankings. It was a big week for veterans as Patrick McKee pinned Eric Barnett, Caleb Smith majored Braeden Davis and Jakob Camacho returned with a win over Brett Ungar. We had Jarrett Trombley ranked for NC State, while Camacho was going through a reset, but Camacho's probably the guys going forward after that win. So, let get to the rankings: Click Here

While some Big 12 dual seasons were already finished as of this week, that didn’t stop a majority of the teams from getting in some competitive final matches. Missouri came back 2-0 after their trip to the Dakota’s, but South Dakota State made it more than interesting. Oklahoma State dominated the Sooners for their 19th consecutive Bedlam win. Wyoming and Utah Valley both won a handful of brackets at the Cowboy Shootout. With SDSU vs NDSU, OK State vs Iowa, and Missouri vs UNI/ISU on the remaining schedule, there are some excellent duals coming up in the final week before conferences. Air Force (Overall: 5-7; Conference: 2-6): Dual Results The Falcons hosted Senior Day against Northern Colorado for their last dual but lost 32-12. Air Force was missing Sam Wolf at 184 but got wins from Garrett Kuchan, Giano Petrucelli, and Wyatt Hendrickson led the way with three wins. Hendrickson got his 14th pin of the season against Andrew Blackburn-Forst and finished his career in duals with an impressive 36-2 dual record with his last dual loss coming in 2021. On top of that, 33 of those wins came by bonus points and 23 were pins. Next Up: Big 12 Championships California Baptist (Overall: 6-10; Conference: 1-6): Dual Results The Lancers doubled their dual wins from 2023 with a 2-0 weekend against Cal State Bakersfield and Hofstra. They beat CSUB 31-7 and Hofstra by a score of 29-10. They won 15 out of 20 matches and saw Darren Green, Dayne Morton, and Nathan Haas all go 2-0 on the weekend. Seven of the team’s matches came by bonus with one fall, two techs, and four majors. The team’s 31 points against CSUB is the most they’ve scored in a dual against a Division I opponent since making the move. Next Up: California Baptist travels to Orem, UT for a season finale dual against Utah Valley on February 24th. Iowa State (Overall: 12-2; Conference: 5-1): No Competition. Next Up: Iowa State hosts Missouri on February 25th for a Big 12 finale. Missouri (Overall: 10-2; Conference: 6-1): Dual Results (NDSU) | Dual Results (SDSU) The Tigers rebounded from two consecutive losses with wins over the Dakota schools. Missing Kade Moore and Logan Gioffre they took out NDSU 32-6 then had to make a comeback against SDSU for a 21-19 win. Noah Surtin went 2-0 with major decisions, including over Tanner Jordan, a win with significant seeding implications. Josh Edmond majored ranked Gavin Drexler of NDSU before squeaking out a 3-2 win over backup Caleb Gross at SDSU. Brock Mauller, Keegan O’Toole, and Zach Elam also went 2-0 on the weekend. SDSU got big wins at 174 and 184 before a momentous pin by Tanner Sloan over Rocky Elam put the Tigers needing at least a tech for the win as the Jackrabbits had criteria. Zach Elam was ready to head back to Columbia as he cradled and pinned Luke Rasmussen in :33 seconds for the team win. Next Up: Missouri finishes their season with duals against Northern Iowa (February 23rd) and Iowa State (February 25th). North Dakota State (Overall: 3-10; Conference: 2-5): Dual Results The Bison dropped a 32-6 dual to Missouri over the weekend but had some bright spots. Max Petersen continues to impress as a redshirt freshman and beat Joel Mylin 4-2 and Spencer Mooberry got a solid 5-1 win over Jesse Cassatt for some team points. Even in losses, NDSU had solid moments. Henningson scored two takedowns on Noah Surtin, true freshman Boeden Greenley kept it close with Brock Mauller, and Devon Dawson scored an impressive first takedown on Zach Elam. Next Up: NDSU takes on SDSU on February 25th for an always fun dual finale. Northern Colorado (Overall: 10-5; Conference: 3-4): Dual Results The Bears matched their conference dual wins from last season with a 32-12 win over Air Force. The team got a hot start from Stevo Poulin and Dom Serrano who scored a pin and tech respectively. Vinny Zerban, Branson Britten, and Xavier Vasquez got in on the bonus points as well with a tech, a major, and a pin. Zerban is now 21-0 on the season with an impressive 81% bonus rate and likely locked up the top seed with another conference win. Next Up: Big 12 Championships Northern Iowa (Overall: 6-6; Conference: 5-2): No Competition. Next Up: The Panthers host Missouri on February 23rd and Wisconsin on February 25th. Oklahoma State (Overall: 14-0; Conference: 8-0): Dual Results The Cowboys beat Oklahoma 34-9 for their 19th consecutive win in Bedlam. The team started quickly with first-period pins from Troy Spratley and Tagen Jamison along with a tech from Daton Fix. Dustin Plott and Luke Surber both got tech falls, while Teague Travis majored Jared Hill. They did drop upset a few bouts with Jordan Williams, Brayden Thompson, and Konner Doucet losing close matches. With Iowa coming up, OSU is looking to stay undefeated for the first time since the COVID-shortened 2021 season. They went 15-0 in 2019 as well, the Cowboys won trophies in both of those years so it could bode well for March. Next Up: Oklahoma State takes on Iowa at home on February 25th. Oklahoma (Overall: 5-7; Conference: 2-6): Dual Results The Sooners got blown out in their dual finale but got three big upset wins. Normal starters Conrad Hendriksen, Jared Hill, Cael Carlson, and Giuseppe Hoose dropped matches by bonus points. Willie McDougald beat Jordan Williams for the second time this season, Tate Picklo reversed a 9-0 major loss to a sudden victory win over Brayden Thompson, and Josh Heindselman beat Konner Doucet in their first match that didn’t go to rideouts. The score was lopsided but those three plus the potential of Stephen Buchanan in March should make things positive for the Sooners. Next Up: Oklahoma and Oklahoma State compete in their second Bedlam of the year on February 18th, this time in Stillwater. South Dakota State (Overall: 12-4; Conference: 6-2): Dual Results The Jackrabbits came close but dropped a 21-19 dual against Missouri. They took advantage of a shorthanded Mizzou with Derrick Cardinal and Alek Martin getting strong wins. Cade DeVos beat Peyton Mocco, avenging an NCAA bloodround loss from last season. Bennett Berge hit a big move to score a win over Colton Hawks, while Tanner Sloan may have hit the move of the weekend with a pancake while down 3-0. He put Rocky Elam on his back for the second-period pin and second win in a row against Elam. Unfortunately, a quick pin at heavyweight cut the lead quickly. Clay Carlson wasn’t in the dual, instead going 3-0 at the Cowboy Shootout to try and get matches for allocations. Next Up: South Dakota State hosts NDSU on February 25th for their dual finale. Utah Valley (Overall: 2-6; Conference: 1-6): Cowboy Shootout Brackets The Wolverines didn’t have a dual but sent 14 wrestlers to Wyoming’s Cowboy Shootout. Haiden Drury, Jacob Carson, Kael Bennie, and Jack Forbes all won their divisions. Big news also broke when it was announced that Adam Hall, NC State’s current associate head coach, will take over at the end of the season. Next Up: Utah Valley has a dual against California Baptist on February 24th to finish the regular season. West Virginia (Overall: 10-5; Conference: 2-5): Dual Results The Mountaineers had their second-largest crowd ever at its fifth Beauty and the Beast event. They scored a 42-3 win over Glenville State, including five techs and a fall. They reached ten dual wins for the second consecutive season, a feat they haven’t done since 1990 and 1991. Next Up: Big 12 Championships Wyoming (Overall: 7-7; Conference: 5-4): Cowboy Shootout Brackets Wyoming hosted the Cowboy Shootout and had 21 athletes compete, including six starters. The six starters went 14-0 with Cole Brooks, Sloan Swan, Ethan Ducca, Kevin Zimmer, Cooper Voorhees, and Quayin Short. Brooks, Swan, and Ducca all won by bonus points. Next Up: Big 12 Championships

The penultimate weekend of the 2023-24 regular season is officially in the books. We only have a week left of duals before moving on to conference tournaments and the NCAA’s in Kansas City. So we’ll this will be the second to last recap on the top ten dual teams. The past week featured two matchups between top-ten teams, #1 Penn State and #4 Nebraska, along with #7 NC State and #8 Cornell. In both instances, the higher-ranked team prevailed; however, there’s still plenty to be learned about all four squads. Here’s the look back at the last week in the top-ten and what’s coming up next on the dual front…if anything. 1. Penn State On Sunday afternoon, Penn State held off #4 Nebraska to finish the 2023-24 campaign a perfect 8-0 in Big Ten competition. Two noteworthy performances came from Nittany Lion wrestlers who were facing familiar opponents. At 141 lbs, with his team in a 7-0 hole, #1 Beau Bartlett dispatched #7 Brock Hardy 9-6 after notching takedowns in each of the first two periods. Hardy defeated Bartlett in the 2023 Big Ten semifinals, one of Bartlett’s three losses during that season. Two matches later, it was a Big Ten finals and NCAA semifinal rematch between #1 Levi Haines and #7 Peyton Robb. This meeting was nothing like it’s predecessors. Haines tallied three takedowns in a 10-3 thumping. Despite losing their first two matches of the dual, Penn State won six of the finals eight to take the dual, 22-13. Top ranked Carter Starocci, Aaron Brooks, and Greg Kerkvliet all chipped in with bonus point wins. Next: Penn State wraps up their regular season schedule with a home dual against 2-11 Edinboro on Sunday. 2. Oklahoma State The second installment of the Bedlam series took place on Saturday night and it ended very similarly to the first version. Oklahoma State dominated to the tune of 34-9 in historic Gallagher-Iba Arena. Earlier this year, they went to enemy soil and beat Oklahoma, 28-9. This meeting saw the Cowboys win seven of ten bouts with a pair of fall and a triumvirate of techs. Troy Spratley (125) and Tagen Jamison (141) supplied the pins, while Daton Fix (133), Dustin Plott (184), and Luke Surber (197) were responsible for the tech falls. In the first round of this year’s Bedlam Duals, Oklahoma State did not have Fix or Surber at their disposal. Next: The Cowboys conclude the regular season with a non-conference dual against Iowa, at home. Oklahoma State is seeking to snap a three-match losing streak to the rivals from the Big Ten. The Cowboys last win against Iowa came in February of 2019, which was the memorable dual when Nick Piccininni pinned Spencer Lee. This year’s version of the dual could feature three meetings between top-ten ranked wrestlers. 3. Iowa Also on Sunday afternoon, Iowa concluded its Big Ten dual slate with a 34-7 win over Wisconsin. It was a much needed, one-sided win for the Hawkeyes, who were on a modest two-match losing streak heading into the dual. From an Iowa standpoint, the two most significant takeaways from the win came at 149 and 184 lbs. At 149, Caleb Rathjen continued to get it done against a quality foe in two-time national qualifier Joe Zargo. He prevailed with an 8-1 decision. 184 lb saw Gabe Arnold make the final appearance of his redshirt year. Arnold edged Midlands champion and #16 ranked Shane Liegel, 8-6. Every other Hawkeye that got their hands raised on Sunday did so with some sort of bonus points. Leading the way was NCAA runner-up, #2 Real Woods, who locked up a fall as he was about to win via tech. Next: As mentioned above, Iowa was a huge non-conference dual at Oklahoma State to end the dual season. A win by the Hawkeyes would avoid the team’s first three-loss season since 2017-18. 4. Nebraska Nebraska concluded their Big Ten schedule with a 22-13 loss to top-ranked Penn State. I’m sure Mark Manning and his staff aren’t in the mood for moral victories, but the Cornhuskers are the only team in 2023-24 to score more than ten points against the Nittany Lions. They also have to be encouraged by the 141 lb bout. Though Beau Bartlett won, there was a controversial “injury time” taken by Bartlett as Brock Hardy was close to finishing a takedown. Hardy made things interesting in the final stanza and gave the impression that he could defeat Bartlett should they meet in the postseason. The dual got kicked off by Caleb Smith stunning freshman star Braeden Davis at 125 lbs with an 11-3 major decision. 125 has been absolutely bonkers and unable to predict all year. Later this week, we may dive into some Big Ten seeding predictions. They may not necessarily matter at 125, as much as other weights, but beating Davis certainly helped on that front. Nebraska also got wins from Jacob Van Dee (133), Ridge Lovett (149), and Lenny Pinto (184). Van Dee continues to impress with a late-season surge, while Lovett survived and remained undefeated against a tough true freshman. Pinto held of three-time All-American Bernie Truax to take a six-match winning streak into the postseason. Next: Before the B1G Championships, Nebraska heads out west for a non-conference dual with Arizona State. The Sun Devils boast a pair of multi-time All-Americans in the middle of their lineup, which should make for intriguing matchups against Lovett and Peyton Robb. 5. Iowa State The Cyclones were off this week in preparation for their season finale against #9 Missouri. This dual could pit two pair of undefeated wrestlers up against each other at 165 and 285 lbs. Many fans had the 165 lb contest between national champions David Carr and Keegan O’Toole circled the day the schedules were released. Last year, Carr won the dual and Big 12 finals matchup; while O’Toole took the big one in the NCAA finals. 6. Ohio State Not only did Ohio State wrap up their Big Ten slate with a 38-7 win over Michigan State, but they also finished their regular season. The Buckeyes are done with duals and have turned their attention to the Big Ten Championships at the University of Maryland. Ohio State’s win over Michigan State including wins in eight of ten matches and bonus points in six of those contests. Nic Bouzakis (133), Ryder Rogotzke (184), and Nick Feldman (285) led the way with falls. Rogotzke’s pin of #15 Layne Malczewski featured him reaching back in a manner which you’d probably yell at your middle school son for doing; however, he’s perfected those types of situations and has made himself one of the most dangerous guys at 184 lbs. A tip of the hat is in order to Tom Ryan and the Buckeye staff. They’ve been hammered with injuries this year and haven’t blinked. Despite missing a chunk of projected starters, the Buckeyes have grabbed wins over top-ten teams like Cornell and Michigan. 7. NC State NC State went away from the ACC norm of Friday night conference duals at this time of year when they hosted Cornell in a much-anticipated non-conference clash. Former Wolfpack coach Donnie Vinson and NC State legend Nick Gwiazdowski returned on the bench for Cornell. A few Cornell stars that didn’t wrestle led this to be a rather lopsided 24-9 win for the Wolfpack. Even so, there were some good moments. The NC State staff has to be encouraged with a 5-1 win from Jakob Camacho over #13 Brett Ungar at 125 lbs. Camacho had some time off after a rough patch. in late-December/January, but looks like he’s the guy for Pat Popolizio’s team coming down the home stretch. At 184 lbs, freshman Dylan Fishback downed 2023 All-American Chris Foca in one of the best matches of the weekend, 6-4. That bout could go a long way towards NCAA seeding in a weight that is relatively wide-open after the top two. Next: It’s time for one of the best new rivalries in the sport, NC State versus Virginia Tech. This dual has frequently decided the ACC regular season title-winning team and typically comes down to the last match; regardless of records or rankings. NC State will play host this year and is looking to get one back after the Hokies took last season’s dual, 16-14. 8. Cornell Cornell took a trip down south to face off with a pair of teams that were conference champions in 2023, with NC State on Friday night and Appalachian State on Sunday. One of the highlights of the loss to NC State was Big Red super-freshman Meyer Shapiro cruising to a 7-2 win over dangerous All-American Ed Scott. Two matches later, Benny Baker notched an 8-4 victory over #28 Alex Faison. Baker could be tough out for the rest of the conference at the EIWA Championships. Cornell got back on the winning track with a 36-6 win over Appalachian State two days later. Once again, Shapiro was responsible for the biggest win of the dual when he teched the 2023 SoCon champion Tommy Askey. Next: Sunday marks the end of the dual season for Cornell as they’ll host a very underrated Binghamton squad in their EIWA finale. The back of Binghamton’s lineup is particularly strong and should make for some interesting matchups with Cornell. 9. Missouri After a week off, Missouri got back into competition as they traveled up north to face both Dakota schools. North Dakota State on Friday and South Dakota State on Sunday. The North Dakota State dual didn’t provide much in the way of surprising results. The Tigers pounced for a 32-6 win. Half of their starters came away with bonus point wins. Mizzou was pushed two days later by a very solid SDSU squad, but prevailed 21-19 due to some late-match heroics from heavyweight Zach Elam. A match after his younger brother, Rocky, was pinned - Zach took the mat with Mizzou trailing 19-15. Just winning wouldn’t simply cut it from a team standpoint. The elder Elam didn’t even give the SDSU faithful a glimpse of hope as he needed only :33 seconds to pin Luke Rasmussen and give his team the winning six points. Two other notable win for Mizzou against SDSU include Noah Surtin (125) and Brock Mauller (157). Surtin posted a 14-6 major decision against a ranked opponent (#15 Tanner Jordan), showing that he might be one of the few consistent 125 lber in an otherwise tumultuous weight class. Mauller grinded out a 4-1 win over #16 Cael Swensen. 157 lbs is so deep with talent that a loss by Mauller could have been devastating from a Big 12 and NCAA seeding standpoint. Next: Missouri is ending the season in a strong manner. They hit the road to Iowa for a pair of duals against top-20 teams with #17 Northern Iowa on Friday and #5 Iowa State on Sunday. 10. Michigan Friday saw Michigan conclude its Big Ten schedule with a 30-6 win at Indiana. The Wolverines took eight of ten matches and saw three of their wrestlers earn bonus points. Perhaps the highlight of the night was Indiana-native Joseph Walker filling in for #3 Shane Griffith at 174 lbs. Walker knocked off #21 Donnell Washington, 4-3. They’ll finish the year with a 5-3 mark in conference duals. All three losses came to teams currently ranked in the top-seven. Next: Sean Bormet’s team will finish the regular season by traveling to in-state foe Central Michigan for a dual on Sunday. CMU’s best grapplers are in the middle of their lineup, so we’ll probably get to witness a pair of good matchups for Austin Gomez and Will Lewan.

This weekend, high school state tournament season really went into full swing. States like Georgia, Illinois, Indiana, and Iowa held their much-anticipated season-ending tournaments - along with plenty of others. As these tournaments conclude, it begs the question, "how did my favorite team's recruits fare?" In some smaller states, it's almost a given that your college-bound studs are collecting another state title, while in the power states, with the deepest talent pools, such achievements are not guaranteed. Either way, we've combed through results from all of the state tournaments that have taken place thus far to find out how everyone's recruits have finished. We will update this article each week as more results become official. If you do not see a recruit that should be added, please fill out our commitment form or email me at earl@matscouts.com .
